新潟中央病院整形外科入院患者の歯科受診の実態調査

AI解説:
本研究は、超高齢社会における高齢者の整形外科入院患者が増加している現状を背景に行われました。高齢者は運動器疾患に伴う動作制限により口腔ケアが後回しにされがちであり、結果として口腔内環境が悪化する傾向があります。整形外科と歯科の関連性がますます密接になる中で、整形外科入院患者の歯科的問題点や治療の需要についての実態を把握することを目的として、新潟中央病院整形外科入院中に歯科口腔外科を受診した患者を対象に実態調査を行いました。

A total of 680 patients who consulted the Department of Dentistry and Oral Surgery during orthopedic hospitalization at Niigata Central Hospital between January 2007 and December 2012 are enrolled in this study. The purpose of this study is to clarify the demand for dental treatment among the patients who were hospitalized in an orthopedics department. The results obtained were as follows: 1.The number of patients who consulted our department tended to increase every year, and the proportion of elderly patients showed the highest tendency to increase. 2.The majority (80%) of the patients requiring orthopedic hospitalization had bone fractures, back injuries and/or spinal cord disease. 3.The majority of patients (77.4%) had some systemic diseases. 4.Dental disease (35.3%), denture problems (25.9%) and periodontal disease (23.2%) were the most common problems, and were found in 84.4% of the patients who consulted our department. 5.Tooth extraction was the most frequent treatment, followed by denture treatment. 6.A total of 58.7% of the patients finished their dental treatment, and 21.6% of the patients were referred to another family dental clinic. 7.The main reason why these patients were referred to our department by the orthopedist was a close intraoral inspection before performing orthopedic surgery. These results suggest that the overall oral hygiene status of orthopedic inpatients is generally poor, and the demand for dental treatment such as tooth extraction among such patients who are hospitalized in the orthopedic department is high. In addition to treatment of the underlying disease, it is important for the patients to maintain good oral health, and developing a system by which the Department of Dentistry could intervene in various inpatient situations would be helpful.
